Answer:
Numerical expression
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a numerical expression since there is no unknown value. Both values being multiplied are numbers.
58
Between 60 and 55, 5+8=13
Answer:
1. rational number
2. a positive rational number
Step-by-step explanation:
A rational number is a number that can be expressed as a simple fraction. When two rational numbers are multiplied together, the only logical answer would be for the outcome/product to also be rational.
The reciprocal of a positive rational number is also a positive rational number because if the original number was negative, the reciprocal would also be negative since the signs wouldn't change (in this case, the original number is positive). Since the original number is already a rational number, just by flipping it (the reciprocal), it would not change to an irrational, but instead stay the same.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To write fractions with a common denominator, you will most likely need to scale some numbers up! I will explain how.
Let's try it with the fractions
2
3
and
3
12
12 is larger than 3, so we will have to multiply the 3 by some number to equal 12. (We are really finding the Least Common Multiple of the two denominators!) To do this, you have to multiply the 3 by 4, because 3x4=12. But now the numerator doesn't match the denominator. When you scale the denominator up, you have to scale the numerator up too! So the 2 must be multiplied by 4 also.
Now you have the following:
8
12
and
3
12
These fractions now have common denominators! Now they're all set for adding or subtracting fractions.
Try another:
2
6
and
3
5
: The least common multiple of 6 and 5 is 30. (the product of the denominators)
Transform each fraction by multiplying by "1":
2
6
⋅
5
5
=
10
30
and
3
5
⋅
6
6
=
18
30
One last problem:
4
9
and
7
6
What is the least common multiple of 9 and 6? Could you use 54? Absolutely, but it is not the LEAST number that you could use. How about 18? YES!
4
9
⋅
2
2
=
8
18
and
7
6
⋅
3
3
=
21
18

Hope this helped!
Step-by-step explanation:
1. mode is the value which appears most
mode = 12
median is the value in the
middle
median = 14
2. mode = 12
median = 14
